Hartlepool United v Blyth Spartans – 05.12.2014 – FA Cup Match Preview, Prediction, Tips and Squad Info

Hartlepool United v Blyth Spartans Football Match will be played on 05.12.2014 at Victoria Park (Hartlepool, County Durham) for the FA Cup match.

This is the FA Cup match with two teams in the lower divisions against each other.

Hartlepool United are in League two and Blyth Spartans are in the Non League Premier, both teams are struggling in their respective leagues.

Hartlepool are currently ranked 24th position, which is the last position in the League Two table with 12 points only. This is a very dangerous position for them as they could be relegated at the end of the season. Could they bounce back their season in the FA Cup? This match will be hard, they have most recently lost 3 matches in a row and will be hoping to stay in the FA Cup competition.

Millwall v Wigan Athletic Football Match – 13.04.2013 – FA Cup Preview, Prediction, Squad

Millwall v Wigan Athletic Football Match  will be played on 14.04.2013 at Wembley Stadium (London) for an FA Cup match. M. Oliver will be the match referee.

Millwall are currently in 16th position in the English Championships with 52 points. They haven’t had a good season, as they failed to get the top 6 positions so far to be in a chance to taste the Premier League. They have actually been quite good in the F.A Cup. I believe they managed this far is probably because they were against weaker teams (mainly those in the lower leagues). In their last 5 matches in the FA Cup, they have 4 wins and 1 draw, their last win was against Blackburn Rovers, which knocked them out by 1 goal. It ended 0-1 with Millwall playing away.

Chelsea FC v Manchester United football match will be played on 01.04.2013 at Stamford Bridge, London for an FA Cup match. Phil Dowd will be the match referee.

The FA Cup holders Chelsea will be looking to continue defending their record as they were winners in 4 of the last 6 seasons in 7 overall. They won 22 out of 27 FA Cup matches and will be looking to add more silverware. Rafa Benitez has been taking big risks by resting most of their players in their last Premier League match against Southampton in which they lost 2-1 playing away. Chelsea are now playing 2 matches in the short space of 48 hours so it would be understandable to rest players since the players were also on international duty last week. Mata could miss this match due to illness and it would be a big upset for Chelsea if he doesn’t feature in this match. he is one of the most important key players for Chelsea this season, alongside Eden Hazard who is set to start in this match.

In the previous FA Cup match against Man United, Chelsea were 2 goals down but fought back with a 2-2 scoreline and earned an FA Cup match replay at home. Eden Hazard and Ramires was the goal scorers that helped Chelsea earn the replay. It will be interesting to see what line-up Chelsea will play in this match.
